The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Advantages: It's Rocky Horror!, good song list, remastered
Disadvantages: Uh, it's Rocky Horror

To some, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is the ultimate musical. It's cheesy, hokey, risque, and just plain fun. This soundtrack clearly defines why fans still dress up as their favorite characters and attend showings nightly in some areas. It's that kind of musical that will never be forgotten because of its enormous fan base. For good reason, because the film contained some of the greatest songs used in a musical in America. With memorable characters ...
...This soundtrack contains all of the tracks from the movie, which makes for a total of 19. Some standouts include: Science Fiction Double Feature - The scene at the beginning of the movie where a pair of ruby red lips sing along and the credits are rolling. A beautiful song about science fiction movies, and reminiscing about how they used to be made. Damnit, Janet! - Brad tells Janet he would like to marry her, in the form of a short, catchy song: ...

Advantages: GREAT SONGS GOOD MUSCIALITY
Disadvantages: might seem corney to non movie seers

...movie is brilliant and now the Cd can be yours so you can sing all the songs in your car. Yanno people will think you crazy!! LOL Rocky Horror was a rock opera, with deep rock based and often extremely corney song. Its most famous being TIME WARP. This is a must have for the baby boomer generation. Although this does carry over to some of the goth or cult generations today, unless you were into this when it came out, you might think it cheesey and ... Read review

Advantages Funny, very enjoyable, the creation of the characters help to make the film!
Disadvantages A little dated now

...I've seen this film quite a few times and each time is just as amazing as the last! This has to be one of the best musical films i have seen ever. It's funny aswell as serious in some places. I think you have to watch the film at least twice to understand the full extent of it. I've also been to see this show in a theatre, i think it was the best experience i have ever encountered while attending the theatre, the atmosphere was so amazing and everybody made the experience even more enjoyable. I think that even though the film is quite old now, it is still a good thing to watch and i would recommend people to watch it. I have recommended the film to many friends before who have gone and watched and they to thoroughly enjoyed the film.... Read review

Advantages absolutey excellent
Disadvantages nothing

...a telephone. On their arival to the castle, they meet riff-raff the loyal handyman and his sister Magenta, together in their classic performance of the "time warp". They then stumble into a celebration of the creation of Rocky, who Janet later gets to know quite well. Watch Janet and Brad have unlocked and embrace desires that were unbeknown to them. Unfortunately I haven't seen shock treatment, but I will update my review once I have seen it. sorry... Read review

Advantages Can be watched time and again.
Disadvantages ME DANCING ALONG TO THE SONGS!

...One of my favourite films of all time has to be ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’. It is now nearly thirty years old and yet I find the issues it creates are as relevant today as they were in the early 1970’s. It is a stereotyped science fiction movie, portrayed in a format, which is very ‘tongue in cheek’. ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’ combines comic humour with a classic Gothic horror story, Frankenstein: Gothic meets the twenty-second century! In a fifties sci-fi film genre. **History** ‘The Rocky Horror Show’ was originally designated as a piece of experimental theatre in a small London Theatre. Richard O’Brien (Crystal Maze) created this play, the book, music and lyrics and Michael White produced the theatre production. It 'something any ten-year old could enjoy... Read review

Advantages: Great Halloween songs/singers
Disadvantages: Appropriate for pretty much only this season

...by the classic movie The Blob. It's just a fun little ditty that's appropriate for everyone, and you will catch yourself singing it to yourself even if you don't like it initially. I especially enjoy the word play and all of the different sound effects incorporated into the lyrics. It makes for a very individualistic song that you don't hear these days. It proves that to write a good Halloween song, you don't have to write about zombies and gore and blood. I believe that this is a fictional band created for the sole purpose of designing this song, so they probably don't have a discography to check if you enjoy this track. 7. The Time Warp, by the cast of The Rocky Horror Picture Show "It's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right! Put your hands on your hips, and bring your knees in tight! But it's the pelvic thrusts that really... Read review

Advantages: The music, the adventure
Disadvantages: It's all a load of old tosh, really

...anti-hero. Every scene where the Phantom is absent feels flat or, at best, as though its only purpose is to set things up for his next appearance. We never care about the two entrepreneurs who buy the opera house, simply because all the other characters ignore them. The Phantom has all the best lines, all the best suits and all the best songs. His adoration of Christine is a deal more romantic than Raoul, who is blatantly just looking to get his end away. I'm not sure it would be possible to watch this film without wanting the Phantom to win, frankly. He's got a bit of a squint under the mask but given that his competition for Christine's love looks like Meatloaf's daughter... Ah yes. Meatloaf. Despite having virtually given his whole career to the concept of rock opera, the star of Fight Club and the Rocky Horror Picture Show does... Read review
